Story:Wolfenstein is the direct sequel to Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Spear of Destiny/Wolfenstein RPG. It featured a "re-imagined" disguised dark-haired B.J. Blazkowicz, retaining the unshaven look seen in Return to Castle Wolfenstein and dressed in civilian clothes rather than his usual military uniform.
The game mainly consists of the player shooting his way through hordes of different types of Nazis, ranging from normal soldier to ninjas. To deal with the large amount of enemies, the player has access to many typical WWII-weapons like the German MP40 or K98 rifle. In addition, during the course of the game he finds the medallion and learns four powers. While at first entering the Veil only allows him so see enemies more clearly and use strange flying creatures as bombs, he is later able to slow down time, surround himself with a protective shield or make himself stronger. However, the medallion's powers drain its energy, which needs to be refilled at power-spots that are nearly invisible in the real world.Show more

The game shares more black magic, as did 'Return to castle Wolfenstein', but you as the player get to choose what type to use and when.
I particularity liked the veil.
Such a shame Activision pulled it from the shelves.
I solely have a Windows 7 machine just for playing it and nothing else.
I want this game on GOG as the copy protection prevents it from working on Windows 10 / 11.
It was one of mine and my grandpa's favorites games before he passed in 2014
He recommended it to me when I was still in high school, and upon playing it i was hooked, it was one of the things we used to talk about all the time
Wolfenstein (2009) is an entry in the series which introduces characters featured in later Wolfenstein games (The New Order and onwards) - specifically, Caroline Becker. Since the later games are already available on GOG, I think it would be a good idea to reintroduce Wolfenstein (2009) to the store's offer so the full story can be experienced by the fans of the series.
This is such an underrated game, pretty sure due to the nauseous movement of the camera, but after some tweaks, everything else its a major improvement over Return to Castle Wolfenstein: the story, the weapons, the powers... it's an absolutely shame how badly crashed when was released (again, I bet all my fortune it was the camera movement because it was the first time in over 30 years of gaming, that a FPS make me feel sick) and I feel now its time for revindication and to give it a proper place of honor among the rest of the games in this series.
This game isn't my favorite, but it's important as it is canon to the later games. Characters like Caroline make their appearance in Wolfenstein 09, but yet since you can't play this game, that means part of the story is lost (not that the story is anything to write home about, but still).
I played this on xbox 360. and was the last good game raven software made before activision ate them up. Really loved the look and feel. Like the pace compared to the new wolfenstein games.
DestinyBungie has emphasized that the universe of Destiny will be "alive". Events may happen in-game that are not necessarily controlled or planned by the developer, which will help to create a dynamic developing experience for Bungie and a dynamic playing experience for gamers. The game's style has been described a first-person shooter that will incorporate massively multiplayer online game (MMO) elements, but Bungie has avoided defining Destiny as a traditional MMO game. Instead, the game has been referred to as a "shared-world shooter," as it lacks many of the characteristics of a traditional MMO game. For instance, rather than players being able to see and interact with all other players in the game or on a particular server—as is the case in many conventional MMO games—Destiny will include on-the-fly matchmaking that will allow players to see and interact only with other players with whom they are "matched" by the game.
Destiny will incorporate a new game engine that allows global illuminations and real-time dynamic lighting to occur together. An innovation in Bungie's "hopper" technology, which has been the backbone for Halo's matchmaking system, will allow better player matchmaking in order to create a more natural experience in either cooperative or competitive multiplayer modes.Action Warfare Science fiction
